A/N: I wrote this for nurikokoishii because I failed to update my original story, Crystal Life, for four months >.< You can check out that story at my deviantART. AND I have nothing against Kairi...I just don’t really like her too much >>, kinda the same with Namine...^^'
Sora stared blankly at his English homework. The question was simple,
“How many syllables are in ‘romance’?” The answer? Two syllables. Why couldn't he write it down? Because he was out of lead for his pencil.
Sora held his head in one hand and massaged his temples.
“Life sucks. College sucks.” muttered Sora. A muffled laughter escaped his, until then, silent studying companion, Riku. Sora raised his head to glare across the table at him.
“Shut up.” snapped Sora, “Give me your pencil.” Riku shook his head. Sora glared.
“You suck.” said Sora as he returned to his homework.
“Only you.” muttered Riku. Sora’s brows furrowed and his head jerked up.
“What?!” he demanded. Riku grinned,
“Now now Sora, don’t get excited in public.” Riku said as he gestured around the library with a wave of his hand. Sora narrowed his eyes and flipped his silver haired friend off.
“You’re a sicko, you know that? Go screw Cloud. Anyone can tell he’s just about as straight as a rainbow.” Sora bit out as Riku laughed.
“Namine still got you vexed?” he asked. Sora let out a sigh.
“Nah, I gave up on her. She’s totally after Roxas but she fails to notice that he’s with Axel. Apparently it’s just ‘cute’ when they kiss in front of her and Roxas would ‘never be like that’.” Sora rolled his eyes, “I’ll never go for another blonde again.” Riku tried to hide his smile behind an elaborate yawn.
“What about Kairi? She practically stalks you.” said Riku. Sora grimaced and shuddered.
“She scares me, like whoa.” said Sora and then he reached out and snatched Riku’s bag while Riku laughed. Sora dug through the bag until he found Riku’s pencil lead case then threw the bag back to the older boy who was still laughing but caught the bag deftly.
“Well you know what your only option is then?” Riku smirked as Sora eyed him cautiously.
“What?”
Riku stood and walked around the table, stood next to Sora and placed a hand on his shoulder then cupped his chin with his other and pulled Sora’s face upwards and lowered his own until they were barely a hairs breadth away. Riku winked.
“Date me.”
Sora glowered at Riku and pushed away from him, “I’m straight Riku.” the brunnette grumbled as he opened his pencil’s top and started dropping lead pieces in. Riku grit his teeth and grabbed Sora’s chin again and forced him to face him. He then kissed hum roughly and briefly on the lips, pushing Sora away and walking back to his seat.
“Yea, I know, I’m working on that.”
Sora hadn’t moved from his shocked position with his eyes wide when Riku spared him a glance before sitting down and going back to his work. The cocky silver haired freshman smirked when he noticed Sora finally move and stare for a moment at him before finishing loading his pencil, capping it, and tossing the lead case over to Riku before burying his face in his text book.
“You did what?!” Roxas and Axel screeched the next day when Riku had recanted the night’s study session to them. Riku shrugged.
“He always thinks I’m kidding, I wanted him to know I wasn’t.”
Roxas strode over to Riku who was sitting on the couch in the living room of their apartment.
“Riku.” said Roxas when he reached the taller teen.
“What?” Riku inquired. The blond then proceeded to smack him upside the head.
“What were you thinking?! You probably scared him!! You’ll be lucky if he ever talks to you again!” exclaimed Roxas. Riku held his head and raised an arm to protect against further assault. Axel joined Roxas’ side and placed his hands on Roxas’ shoulders.
“You should probably go talk to Sora. If he’s always thought you were just messing with him, you need to go state your standing to him.” said Axel. Riku raised a brow and lowered his arms.
“Axel... you okay? I think you just gave good advice...” Riku gaped. Axel narrowed his eyes and pointed out the door.
“Shut up. I won’t charge ya this time, now get the fuck out.” Riku laughed and rose to his feet.
“Fine, fine.” said Riku and slowly started to make his way toward the door.
“RIKU!” yelled Axel, “Get the fuck out!! I NEED MY SEX!!” Axel exclaimed and chased Riku out the door then slammed and locked it. Riku laughed the whole way out of the apartment complex.
Riku decided to go Sora hunting. He pulled out his cell phone and tapped in Sora’s home number. He waited until the answering machine picked up then left a message:
“Hey Sora, it’s Riku. I just wanted to talk to you about the other night. Give me a call back, okay? Later.” He hung up then dialed his cell. Sora didn’t answer that either. Riku sighed.
“Great, he’s avoiding me.” said Riku as he ran a hand through his long silver hair. He stared absently at the sidewalk, beating himself up inwardly and then he jerked his head up and flicked his cell phone open. He began to scour his contacts list.
“Let’s see.... Kairi, Kairi, Kairi.... I know I have her number here somewhere...” he tapped anxiously down the list and his face lit up as he found her number.
“Yes!” he yelled and pushed send. On the second ring Kairi answered.
“Yes Riku?” she said sweetly.
“Hey Kairi, I need a favor.” said Riku.
“Oh really?” Kairi asked slowly.
“Yeah. I need to know where Sora is.” Riku requested. He could hear her smug grin as she replied,
“I thought something was wrong. He’s been alone all day, usually you two are inseparable. What happened, hm?”
“Kairi, tell me where Sora is or I tell Namine that you’re the one that dyed all her white dresses pink and stole all her drawings of Sora.”
Kairi gasped, “You wouldn’t!” she exclaimed.
“Oh, but I would.” stated Riku. Kairi growled softly.
“He hasn’t left his apartment all day.”
“Sweet, thanks Kairi.”
“Riku?”
“Yea?”
“I’ll remember this.” and then he heard a click as she hung up. He closed and pocketed his phone,
“I bet you will.” muttered Riku and then he broke into a run.
He soon reached Sora’s apartment and knocked on the door. There was a moment of silence and then he heard movement from within the apartment.
“Who is it?” came Sora’s voice. Riku sighed and wondered briefly why he hadn’t just come to Sora’s apartment before.
“It’s me.” replied Riku. He heard Sora shuffle closer to the door.
“Who’s me?” asked Sora softly. Riku leaned against the door.
“Riku.” he replied just as softly.
“I-I’m busy, come back later Riku.” said Sora but Riku didn’t hear him move from his position by the door.
“No, you’re not.” replied Riku, “And I’m not leaving until we talk.” he heard Sora sigh.
“Okay, fine, talk.” said Sora.
Riku knocked his head against the door.
“What was that?” asked Sora. Riku massaged his forehead and sighed.
“Nothing. Look, Sora, you can’t avoid me forever, can we please talk?” he asked softly, “In the same room?” he added as an afterthought and heard a soft, breathy laugh from the other side of the door. There was a pause and then he heard Sora unlocking the door. The door opened and Riku looked at the disheveled brunette. His spikes were pointing in random directions and he was still in baggy black pajama pants and a navy muscle shirt that hung loosely off his thin form. In short, Riku had to resist the urge to immediately molest him. Sora seemed aware of the scrutiny and turned and walked towards his living room. Riku followed him in and closed the door behind him. Sora sat down on his couch and Riku sat down next to him.
Sora jumped to his feet.
“Want anything?” asked Sora and then he blushed and added, “To drink.” a nervous pitch in his voice. Riku made sure he didn’t grin as he simply shook his head.
Sora then pulled out a chair from his kitchen table, flipped it around and then straddled it. An awkward silence followed. They sat in that silence for a few minutes, the clock on the wall ticking loudly. Riku stared at Sora who made an effort to avoid eye contact. Finally, Riku sighed.
“Sora-“
Sora jumped to his feet, “I’m glad we had this talk Riku, see you at class! 'Kay thanks, bye!” Sora said quickly as he started for the door.
Riku ran to the door and blocked the brunnette from reaching it.
“Sora, do you want me to apologize? To pretend it never happened?” asked Riku. Sora stared at him from his position halfway to the door.
“Sora?”
Sora winced and stared at the floor.
“Sora?” said Riku again and he took a couple steps toward him. Sora closed his eyes.
“I-I don’t know.” said Sora.
“Ok then, let’s go sit down and talk about this, alright?” said Riku and he closed the distance between them, put an arm around Sora’s shoulders and guided him to the couch. They sat down and Riku moved away to give Sora his space.
“Sora, I know you always thought I was just joking about you and me dating, and part of me always was because you always said you were, are, straight. But another part of me, a larger part, has always wanted it.” Riku swallowed and watched Sora’s face, “I’ve always respected you and your own decisions and I know I was out of line, but I had to show you, I’m not kidding anymore.”
Riku bit back the next three words he wanted to speak, not wanting to alienate Sora completely and destroy any chance of a friendship between them. Sora sighed.
“The first time you asked me to go out with you, I turned around and asked out Aerith. The second time you asked me, I asked out Rikku and Selfie. And then the third time I asked out Namine and continued to go after her. I’m not gay, I’m not bi,” Sora sighed again, “But no matter how many times I told myself that, I never believed it. Every time you made a move on me I went after some girls just so I could kind of reassure myself I guess.”
“Why did you avoid Kairi? You knew she’d like it too much?” asked Riku, trying to make a light joke.
“Nah dude, she just really scares me. I think she really does stalk me...” replied Sora with a laugh.
“You may never know.” muttered Riku as he laughed along with Sora. Riku sobered up first and Sora continued on in a kind of nervous laughter. Riku sighed,
“So... Sora.... What are you trying to tell me exactly?” asked Riku. Sora stopped laughing abruptly and focused intently on the carpet.
“Well... Well... I-I guess, what I’m trying to say is... is... that um.... I... ah... well... you know... maybe... you too.” said Sora. Riku held back a grin.
“You what, Sora?” asked Riku. Perhaps he was being a little sadistic by trying to make Sora say it but he felt that he deserved a little something. He saw Sora blush.
“Bah! grrr... I... I... I guess... I like you too.” said Sora. Riku’s heart did a leap of joy but he remained seated so as not to scare Sora. Sora glanced at him and Riku tried to hide his goofy grin. Sora glared.
“Shut up.” said Sora and he threw a pillow at Riku. Riku caught it and slid over to sit next to Sora who seemed to try to shrink away.
“Well, I like you too.” said Riku and he put an arm around Sora’s shoulders. Sora looked up at him and Riku moved in. He touched their noses together and then slowly pushed their lips together. When Sora’s eyes fluttered closed, Riku closed his eyes.
Riku felt a hand on his shoulder and he pushed slightly harder. Sora parted his lips and Riku took Sora’s bottom lip between his teeth gently and softly worried it.
Sora’s hand on Riku’s shoulder fisted in his shirt and Riku released Sora’s lip and moved away from his mouth down to his jaw line and placed kisses along his jaw until he found Sora’s neck and then he began to run kisses up and down his neck, stopping in the crook between his shoulder and neck and sucking lightly. He heard Sora gasp and Riku grinned. Riku ran his tongue up Sora’s neck then followed the trail back down with kisses and brushes of his teeth that generated more gasps from Sora.
Riku departed from Sora’s neck and slid his arm down his back lightly and then brought their lips back together. Riku stayed like that and Sora seemed to be trying to pull Riku closer. Riku leaned back and stared at Sora’s flushed face as he slowly opened his eyes. Riku grinned and Sora blushed further.
“You okay?” Riku murmured as he tweaked one of Sora’s spikes. Sora nodded and looked away from Riku and the taller boy reached out and hugged the blue eyed brunette.
“How ‘bout you get presentable and we’ll go to lunch?” Riku suggested.
“Like... on a date?” asked Sora. Riku grinned,
“Only if you’re willing to go out with me.”
Sora blushed and nodded. Riku hugged Sora again and stood, pulling Sora to his feet as well.
“Alright then, go get ready.” said Riku and he pushed Sora towards the bathroom and smacked him lightly on the butt. Sora jumped and gave Riku a shocked look and Riku winked at him and then he walked quickly to the bathroom. Riku sat back down and sighed happily.
About half an hour later, Sora emerged from the bathroom freshly showered with all his spikes in position and wearing a pair of baggy, black shorts with a black hoody that had short, red sleeves. Sora slipped on his shoes and approached Riku who hadn’t moved from the couch. Riku now stood and flashed a grin.
“Ready to go then?” asked Riku. Sora nodded.
“So where are we going for lunch today, Riku?” asked Sora as they approached the door.
“I dunno, where do you want to go?” asked Riku as he opened the door.
“Hmmm, how about that new sub shop?” suggested Sora as he followed Riku out the door then turned to close and lock it behind him.
“Oh, um, I know what you’re talking about. What was it called?” asked Riku as they headed out of the building.
“It was something stupid...” replied Sora as they turned onto the street.
“I think it started with ‘A’...” said Riku.
“Yea, it did, it reminded me of the douche bag Physics teacher, Xemnas.” said Sora. Riku snapped his fingers.
“Ansem’s!” Riku exclaimed.
“Yeah! That’s it!” agreed Sora. They laughed and proceeded to make fun of Xemnas the rest of the way to Ansem’s Sub Shop.
They arrived at the restaurant, briefly consulted the menu, ordered their food then took a number and sat down.
“For a place that reminds me of a douche bag, it’s actually kinda nice.” said Sora with a laugh. Riku nodded and grinned.
“So, Sora, you are okay with all this right? You’ll go out with me?” asked Riku. Sora blushed and pain shot up Riku’s leg as Sora kicked him under the table.
“Ow!” exclaimed Riku.
“I said I was before, didn’t I? Don’t talk about that in public you retard!” Sora grumbled. Riku rolled his eyes.
“Okay, okay, I was just checking. Calm down your Majesty.” said Riku.
“Hey!” Sora kicked Riku again, “I am soo not the girl in this relationship!” Sora snapped quietly. Riku, who had been rubbing his sore leg, now broke out in laughter.
“Oh wow, just wow.” said Riku as he sobered, “I love how you took the majesty part in reference to a queen. It could just as easily have been a king reference.” said Riku with a smile. Sora glared. Riku dropped his grin.
“Sora don’t-“ Riku winced as Sora kicked him again. Their subs arrived and Riku glared at Sora who grinned smugly all through their meal. When they finished they paid and left. As they exited the restaurant though, they were cornered by Kairi.
“Hello Riku.” said Kairi with a toss of her hair, “Hey Sora.” she said in her sweetest of tones. Sora waved weakly.
“ ‘Sup Kairi.” Riku greeted.
“Oh, Riku, since I can see you and the love of my life are now on speaking terms, I’d like to redeem a favor that you owe me.” said Kairi. Riku furrowed his brows.
“Oh really?” Riku asked slowly.
“Yes. And I want a kiss from Sora.” said Kairi and she tapped Sora on the nose. Riku grit his teeth. Now was not the time to put Kairi in her place by telling Sora that Kairi really did stalk him. He looked at Sora and saw he was grinning.
“Sora?” asked Riku.
“Okay, I’ll do it.” said Sora. Kairi beamed and pushed Riku out of the way, puckered up and leaned in towards Sora. Sora grabbed her shoulders and leaned towards her but neatly avoided her lips and planted a kiss on her cheek. He pulled away, released her and patted her on the head.
“See you around Kairi.” said Sora and he walked away, grabbing Riku’s shirt sleeve and tugging him after him.
About a block later, Riku burst out laughing.
“Oh, my God, dude! She is SO going to kill you!”
Sora grinned and shrugged.
“It got rid of her, for now.” said Sora. Riku nodded and smiled.
“So... What kind of favor did you need from Kairi?” asked Sora as they continued walking.
“Well, she doesn’t ‘practically’ stalk you, she does stalk you. So I had to get her to tell me where you were this morning. Though... it wasn’t much of a favor since I blackmailed it out of her.” said Riku. Sora laughed.
“Don’t tell her I’m moving next week." Sora chuckled. "How did you blackmail her?"
“Well, remember when you were all after Namine?” Riku asked. Sora nodded, “Then seeing as how you’re the ‘love of her life’ she got jealous and dyed all Namine’s white dresses pink and stole all her drawings of you.” said Riku. Sora laughed harder.
“Oh wow. I remember when Namine freaked about that. Wow, now I kinda feel bad but...it’s still funny.” giggled Sora. Riku draped an arm over Sora’s shoulders while they laughed and walked.
They soon arrived back at Sora’s apartment. Sora unlocked the door and headed in but Riku waited outside the door.
“Whatcha doin’ Riku? Come in!” yelled Sora from the kitchen.
“Sora...” Riku hesitated. Sora came back to the door.
“What?” asked Sora.
“You’re my boyfriend, right?” asked Riku bluntly. Sora blushed then ruffled his spikes.
“Yea! Duh! Now get your scrawny ass in here!” Sora said then walked back into the living room.
“We need to beat that one boss in that one game!” said Sora with a wave over his shoulder as he crouched next to the TV and turned on the Playstation 2. Riku grinned and entered the apartment, closing the door behind him and taking off his shoes.
“The virus in Dot Hack?” asked Riku.
“Yeah! That one!” agreed Sora as they both sat down on the couch and pulled the Playstation 2 controllers to them.
“I bet you die and I have to revive you before I even take a hit.” grinned Riku. Sora glared.
“No, I bet you die first!” Sora retaliated lamely. Riku laughed and pushed start.
“Let the boss battle begin.” said Riku.
Ten minutes later Sora was dead, again, Riku hadn’t been hit yet and he was running out of stuff to revive Sora’s character.
“Sora! My god! Stop dying!” exclaimed Riku and he revived Sora who then ran right at the boss again, and got the shit beat out of him... again. Riku hit pause before Sora’s character hit the ground.
“What part of tactics and teamwork don’t you understand?” demanded Riku as he turned to Sora.
“Hey! Hey! Unpause it and revive me!! I was soo close that time!” yelled Sora as he gripped the controller. Riku tugged the controller neatly out of Sora’s hands.
“No, not until you promise to listen to me.” said Riku.
“I’ll listen! I’ll listen! Give it back!!” said Sora as he tried to recapture the controller that Riku held out of his reach.
“Sora! You don’t stay alive for more than 30 seconds and I’m running out of potions. Think about what you’re doing for a minute!” exclaimed Riku.
Sora stopped reaching for the controller and stared at Riku.
“What? Did something I said finally break through?” asked Riku as he rolled his eyes.
“Yea... something...” said Sora and then he leaned forward and captured Riku’s lips in his own. Riku blinked a couple times then closed his eyes and dropped the controller, instead reaching around to run his hands against Sora’s back. Sora pushed harder against Riku’s lips and Riku fell back onto the couch. Their lips parted and Riku opened his eyes to see Sora blushing a deep red and refusing to meet Riku’s eyes. Riku ran the back of his hand against Sora’s cheek and caressed his shoulder with his other hand.
“Sora?” asked Riku softly. Sora glanced briefly at Riku then away again. Riku grinned and pulled Sora down onto him and kissed him, running his hands along Sora’s back once again, this time lightly massaging. Riku opened his eyes slightly when he felt Sora’s hand on his shoulder, fisting in his shirt. Riku released Sora’s lips and kissed his chin then leaned forward to lay kisses along Sora’s jaw line, breathing softly in Sora’s ear.
“Ri... ku...” Sora sighed. Riku grinned and purred softly into Sora’s ear. Sora laughed breathily. Riku pulled himself out from under Sora and sat up, stretching his legs out on the couch around Sora who he then pulled into his lap with Sora’s back against his chest.
“R-Riku?” asked Sora softly.
“Shhh, it’s okay.” said Riku and he began to plant kisses at the base of Sora’s neck, his hands now roving Sora’s chest, pressing lightly here and there until Sora seemed to relax completely into his arms, leaning seemingly limply against Riku’s chest.
Riku grinned and continued to kiss Sora as he directed his hands to brush lightly over Sora’s nipples. Sora jumped slightly but Riku held him in place gently as he brushed the tips of his fingers ever so softly against Sora’s hardening nipples and even tweaking them occasionally and receiving little gasps from Sora.
Riku left one hand at Sora’s chest and strayed the other down to the hem of Sora’s shirt and slid his hand under it. He heard Sora’s slightly louder gasp as Riku had his other hand join the first and start to push the shirt up. Sora grabbed his shirt and tugged it off, turning to Riku with a glazed look as he leaned in and kissed Riku forcefully until Riku gently pushed him away and began to run his hands against Sora’s now bare chest.
Sora settled back against Riku, resting his head against Riku’s shoulder and sighing. Riku smiled and let his hands stray lower. He noticed Sora’s blush return in full force and he tried to turn and hide his face against Riku’s neck. Riku kissed Sora’s forehead softly and noticed Sora had his hands in a death grip on the couch.
“Are you Ok?” asked Riku softly. Sora squeezed his yes tighter shut and nodded against Riku’s neck. Riku let his hands move to the button and zipper on Sora’s shorts.
“How about now?” Riku asked as he began to undo the fastenings. Sora nodded again and Riku slid his hands into Sora’s shorts, brushing against the bulge in Sora’s boxers. Sora’s breathing became erratic.
“And now?” asked Riku as he slid a hand inside Sora’s boxers and stroked Sora softly. Sora whimpered and fisted a hand into Riku’s shirt.
“Y-Yes.” breathed Sora. Riku leaned his head against Sora’s and began to lightly flutter his fingers against Sora who started to squirm and tried to thrust his hips at Riku’s hand.
“R-Riku.” Sora whispered and he left his mouth hanging open as he gasped greedily for air. Riku smiled and kissed Sora on the forehead then wrapped his hand around Sora and slid it slowly up and down. Sora whimpered loudly and tugged on Riku’s shirt.
“Please.” Sora said softly. Riku felt himself blush crimson and began to stroke Sora faster.
Sora’s breathing became very erratic, stopping completely at times and then gasping madly as he moaned softly into Riku’s neck. Riku picked up speed and Sora moaned louder.
“Riku!” Sora exclaimed suddenly as he began to thrust hard into Riku’s hand and then there was a huge intake of breath as Sora’s whole body arched into the air and Sora moaned loudly.
“Ahhhh!! Riku!!” he exclaimed and then collapsed against Riku and breathed heavily.
Riku slid his hand out of Sora’s pants and reached for the laundry that Sora never put away but always left in piles next to the couch. Riku wrapped his hand around the first thing he felt and pulled it around. Conveniently it was a towel and Riku wiped his hand off on the towel then discarded it on the floor.
Sora snuggled against Riku’s chest and sighed. Riku grinned and fastened Sora’s pants then gasped when he felt Sora’s hand cup him. Riku grabbed his hand and brought it to his lips and kissed the back of his hand.
“But--?” asked Sora, searching Riku’s face tiredly. Riku shook his head.
“Don’t worry, I’m fine.” Riku smiled and wrapped his arms around Sora and hugged him tightly.
“I’ll redeem that later though.” Riku said softly into Sora’s ear. Sora blushed then covered his face and sighed as he relaxed against Riku.
“You’re a fucking perv, you know that?” asked Sora sarcastically. Riku laughed.
“I didn’t hear you complaining.” grinned Riku. Sora punched Riku lightly in the gut causing Riku to briefly gasp for air.
“Don’t go all kinky on me retard, you still need to revive me.” said Sora as he fished around on the floor for the controller and snagging it by its cord. Riku threw his head back and laughed.
“I can kill that thing in the time it takes it to kill you again.” said Riku with a grin as he and Sora sat up and pulled the controllers into their hands.
“Is that a bet, fag?” asked Sora and his finger hovered over the start button.
“You bet it is, whore!” exclaimed Riku and he unpaused the game, revived Sora and ran at the monster.

Sora stared blankly at his English homework. The question was simple,
“How many syllables are in ‘romance’?” The answer? Two syllables. Why couldn't he write it down? Because he was out of lead for his pencil.
Sora held his head in one hand and massaged his temples.
“Life sucks. College sucks.” muttered Sora. A muffled laughter escaped his, until then, silent studying companion, Riku. Sora raised his head to glare across the table at him.
“Shut up.” snapped Sora, “Give me your pencil.” Riku shook his head. Sora glared.

“What?!” he demanded. Riku grinned,
“Now now Sora, don’t get excited in public.” Riku said as he gestured around the library with a wave of his hand. Sora narrowed his eyes and flipped his silver haired friend off.
“You’re a sicko, you know that? Go screw Cloud. Anyone can tell he’s just about as straight as a rainbow.” Sora bit out as Riku laughed.
“Namine still got you vexed?” he asked. Sora let out a sigh.
“Nah, I gave up on her. She’s totally after Roxas but she fails to notice that he’s with Axel. Apparently it’s just ‘cute’ when they kiss in front of her and Roxas would ‘never be like that’.” Sora rolled his eyes, “I’ll never go for another blonde again.” Riku tried to hide his smile behind an elaborate yawn.
“What about Kairi? She practically stalks you.” said Riku. Sora grimaced and shuddered.
“She scares me, like whoa.” said Sora and then he reached out and snatched Riku’s bag while Riku laughed. Sora dug through the bag until he found Riku’s pencil lead case then threw the bag back to the older boy who was still laughing but caught the bag deftly.
“Well you know what your only option is then?” Riku smirked as Sora eyed him cautiously.
“What?”
Riku stood and walked around the table, stood next to Sora and placed a hand on his shoulder then cupped his chin with his other and pulled Sora’s face upwards and lowered his own until they were barely a hairs breadth away. Riku winked.
“Date me.”
Sora glowered at Riku and pushed away from him, “I’m straight Riku.” the brunnette grumbled as he opened his pencil’s top and started dropping lead pieces in. Riku grit his teeth and grabbed Sora’s chin again and forced him to face him. He then kissed hum roughly and briefly on the lips, pushing Sora away and walking back to his seat.
“Yea, I know, I’m working on that.”
Sora hadn’t moved from his shocked position with his eyes wide when Riku spared him a glance before sitting down and going back to his work. The cocky silver haired freshman smirked when he noticed Sora finally move and stare for a moment at him before finishing loading his pencil, capping it, and tossing the lead case over to Riku before burying his face in his text book.
“You did what?!” Roxas and Axel screeched the next day when Riku had recanted the night’s study session to them. Riku shrugged.
“He always thinks I’m kidding, I wanted him to know I wasn’t.”
Roxas strode over to Riku who was sitting on the couch in the living room of their apartment.
“Riku.” said Roxas when he reached the taller teen.
“What?” Riku inquired. The blond then proceeded to smack him upside the head.
“What were you thinking?! You probably scared him!! You’ll be lucky if he ever talks to you again!” exclaimed Roxas. Riku held his head and raised an arm to protect against further assault. Axel joined Roxas’ side and placed his hands on Roxas’ shoulders.
“You should probably go talk to Sora. If he’s always thought you were just messing with him, you need to go state your standing to him.” said Axel. Riku raised a brow and lowered his arms.
“Axel... you okay? I think you just gave good advice...” Riku gaped. Axel narrowed his eyes and pointed out the door.
“Shut up. I won’t charge ya this time, now get the fuck out.” Riku laughed and rose to his feet.
“Fine, fine.” said Riku and slowly started to make his way toward the door.
“RIKU!” yelled Axel, “Get the fuck out!! I NEED MY SEX!!” Axel exclaimed and chased Riku out the door then slammed and locked it. Riku laughed the whole way out of the apartment complex.
Riku decided to go Sora hunting. He pulled out his cell phone and tapped in Sora’s home number. He waited until the answering machine picked up then left a message:
“Hey Sora, it’s Riku. I just wanted to talk to you about the other night. Give me a call back, okay? Later.” He hung up then dialed his cell. Sora didn’t answer that either. Riku sighed.
“Great, he’s avoiding me.” said Riku as he ran a hand through his long silver hair. He stared absently at the sidewalk, beating himself up inwardly and then he jerked his head up and flicked his cell phone open. He began to scour his contacts list.
“Let’s see.... Kairi, Kairi, Kairi.... I know I have her number here somewhere...” he tapped anxiously down the list and his face lit up as he found her number.
“Yes!” he yelled and pushed send. On the second ring Kairi answered.
“Yes Riku?” she said sweetly.
“Hey Kairi, I need a favor.” said Riku.
“Oh really?” Kairi asked slowly.
“Yeah. I need to know where Sora is.” Riku requested. He could hear her smug grin as she replied,
“I thought something was wrong. He’s been alone all day, usually you two are inseparable. What happened, hm?”
“Kairi, tell me where Sora is or I tell Namine that you’re the one that dyed all her white dresses pink and stole all her drawings of Sora.”
Kairi gasped, “You wouldn’t!” she exclaimed.
“Oh, but I would.” stated Riku. Kairi growled softly.
“He hasn’t left his apartment all day.”
“Sweet, thanks Kairi.”
“Riku?”
“Yea?”
“I’ll remember this.” and then he heard a click as she hung up. He closed and pocketed his phone,
“I bet you will.” muttered Riku and then he broke into a run.
He soon reached Sora’s apartment and knocked on the door. There was a moment of silence and then he heard movement from within the apartment.
“Who is it?” came Sora’s voice. Riku sighed and wondered briefly why he hadn’t just come to Sora’s apartment before.
“It’s me.” replied Riku. He heard Sora shuffle closer to the door.
“Who’s me?” asked Sora softly. Riku leaned against the door.
“Riku.” he replied just as softly.
“I-I’m busy, come back later Riku.” said Sora but Riku didn’t hear him move from his position by the door.
“No, you’re not.” replied Riku, “And I’m not leaving until we talk.” he heard Sora sigh.
“Okay, fine, talk.” said Sora.
Riku knocked his head against the door.
“What was that?” asked Sora. Riku massaged his forehead and sighed.
“Nothing. Look, Sora, you can’t avoid me forever, can we please talk?” he asked softly, “In the same room?” he added as an afterthought and heard a soft, breathy laugh from the other side of the door. There was a pause and then he heard Sora unlocking the door. The door opened and Riku looked at the disheveled brunette. His spikes were pointing in random directions and he was still in baggy black pajama pants and a navy muscle shirt that hung loosely off his thin form. In short, Riku had to resist the urge to immediately molest him. Sora seemed aware of the scrutiny and turned and walked towards his living room. Riku followed him in and closed the door behind him. Sora sat down on his couch and Riku sat down next to him.
Sora jumped to his feet.
“Want anything?” asked Sora and then he blushed and added, “To drink.” a nervous pitch in his voice. Riku made sure he didn’t grin as he simply shook his head.
Sora then pulled out a chair from his kitchen table, flipped it around and then straddled it. An awkward silence followed. They sat in that silence for a few minutes, the clock on the wall ticking loudly. Riku stared at Sora who made an effort to avoid eye contact. Finally, Riku sighed.
“Sora-“
Sora jumped to his feet, “I’m glad we had this talk Riku, see you at class! 'Kay thanks, bye!” Sora said quickly as he started for the door.
Riku ran to the door and blocked the brunnette from reaching it.
“Sora, do you want me to apologize? To pretend it never happened?” asked Riku. Sora stared at him from his position halfway to the door.
“Sora?”
Sora winced and stared at the floor.
“Sora?” said Riku again and he took a couple steps toward him. Sora closed his eyes.
“I-I don’t know.” said Sora.
“Ok then, let’s go sit down and talk about this, alright?” said Riku and he closed the distance between them, put an arm around Sora’s shoulders and guided him to the couch. They sat down and Riku moved away to give Sora his space.
“Sora, I know you always thought I was just joking about you and me dating, and part of me always was because you always said you were, are, straight. But another part of me, a larger part, has always wanted it.” Riku swallowed and watched Sora’s face, “I’ve always respected you and your own decisions and I know I was out of line, but I had to show you, I’m not kidding anymore.”
Riku bit back the next three words he wanted to speak, not wanting to alienate Sora completely and destroy any chance of a friendship between them. Sora sighed.
“The first time you asked me to go out with you, I turned around and asked out Aerith. The second time you asked me, I asked out Rikku and Selfie. And then the third time I asked out Namine and continued to go after her. I’m not gay, I’m not bi,” Sora sighed again, “But no matter how many times I told myself that, I never believed it. Every time you made a move on me I went after some girls just so I could kind of reassure myself I guess.”
“Why did you avoid Kairi? You knew she’d like it too much?” asked Riku, trying to make a light joke.
“Nah dude, she just really scares me. I think she really does stalk me...” replied Sora with a laugh.
“You may never know.” muttered Riku as he laughed along with Sora. Riku sobered up first and Sora continued on in a kind of nervous laughter. Riku sighed,
“So... Sora.... What are you trying to tell me exactly?” asked Riku. Sora stopped laughing abruptly and focused intently on the carpet.
“Well... Well... I-I guess, what I’m trying to say is... is... that um.... I... ah... well... you know... maybe... you too.” said Sora. Riku held back a grin.
“You what, Sora?” asked Riku. Perhaps he was being a little sadistic by trying to make Sora say it but he felt that he deserved a little something. He saw Sora blush.
“Bah! grrr... I... I... I guess... I like you too.” said Sora. Riku’s heart did a leap of joy but he remained seated so as not to scare Sora. Sora glanced at him and Riku tried to hide his goofy grin. Sora glared.
“Shut up.” said Sora and he threw a pillow at Riku. Riku caught it and slid over to sit next to Sora who seemed to try to shrink away.
“Well, I like you too.” said Riku and he put an arm around Sora’s shoulders. Sora looked up at him and Riku moved in. He touched their noses together and then slowly pushed their lips together. When Sora’s eyes fluttered closed, Riku closed his eyes.
Riku felt a hand on his shoulder and he pushed slightly harder. Sora parted his lips and Riku took Sora’s bottom lip between his teeth gently and softly worried it.
Sora’s hand on Riku’s shoulder fisted in his shirt and Riku released Sora’s lip and moved away from his mouth down to his jaw line and placed kisses along his jaw until he found Sora’s neck and then he began to run kisses up and down his neck, stopping in the crook between his shoulder and neck and sucking lightly. He heard Sora gasp and Riku grinned. Riku ran his tongue up Sora’s neck then followed the trail back down with kisses and brushes of his teeth that generated more gasps from Sora.
Riku departed from Sora’s neck and slid his arm down his back lightly and then brought their lips back together. Riku stayed like that and Sora seemed to be trying to pull Riku closer. Riku leaned back and stared at Sora’s flushed face as he slowly opened his eyes. Riku grinned and Sora blushed further.
“You okay?” Riku murmured as he tweaked one of Sora’s spikes. Sora nodded and looked away from Riku and the taller boy reached out and hugged the blue eyed brunette.
“How ‘bout you get presentable and we’ll go to lunch?” Riku suggested.
“Like... on a date?” asked Sora. Riku grinned,
“Only if you’re willing to go out with me.”
Sora blushed and nodded. Riku hugged Sora again and stood, pulling Sora to his feet as well.
“Alright then, go get ready.” said Riku and he pushed Sora towards the bathroom and smacked him lightly on the butt. Sora jumped and gave Riku a shocked look and Riku winked at him and then he walked quickly to the bathroom. Riku sat back down and sighed happily.
About half an hour later, Sora emerged from the bathroom freshly showered with all his spikes in position and wearing a pair of baggy, black shorts with a black hoody that had short, red sleeves. Sora slipped on his shoes and approached Riku who hadn’t moved from the couch. Riku now stood and flashed a grin.
“Ready to go then?” asked Riku. Sora nodded.
“So where are we going for lunch today, Riku?” asked Sora as they approached the door.
“I dunno, where do you want to go?” asked Riku as he opened the door.
“Hmmm, how about that new sub shop?” suggested Sora as he followed Riku out the door then turned to close and lock it behind him.
“Oh, um, I know what you’re talking about. What was it called?” asked Riku as they headed out of the building.
“It was something stupid...” replied Sora as they turned onto the street.
“I think it started with ‘A’...” said Riku.
“Yea, it did, it reminded me of the douche bag Physics teacher, Xemnas.” said Sora. Riku snapped his fingers.
“Ansem’s!” Riku exclaimed.
“Yeah! That’s it!” agreed Sora. They laughed and proceeded to make fun of Xemnas the rest of the way to Ansem’s Sub Shop.
They arrived at the restaurant, briefly consulted the menu, ordered their food then took a number and sat down.
“For a place that reminds me of a douche bag, it’s actually kinda nice.” said Sora with a laugh. Riku nodded and grinned.
“So, Sora, you are okay with all this right? You’ll go out with me?” asked Riku. Sora blushed and pain shot up Riku’s leg as Sora kicked him under the table.
“Ow!” exclaimed Riku.
“I said I was before, didn’t I? Don’t talk about that in public you retard!” Sora grumbled. Riku rolled his eyes.
“Okay, okay, I was just checking. Calm down your Majesty.” said Riku.
“Hey!” Sora kicked Riku again, “I am soo not the girl in this relationship!” Sora snapped quietly. Riku, who had been rubbing his sore leg, now broke out in laughter.
“Oh wow, just wow.” said Riku as he sobered, “I love how you took the majesty part in reference to a queen. It could just as easily have been a king reference.” said Riku with a smile. Sora glared. Riku dropped his grin.
“Sora don’t-“ Riku winced as Sora kicked him again. Their subs arrived and Riku glared at Sora who grinned smugly all through their meal. When they finished they paid and left. As they exited the restaurant though, they were cornered by Kairi.
“Hello Riku.” said Kairi with a toss of her hair, “Hey Sora.” she said in her sweetest of tones. Sora waved weakly.
“ ‘Sup Kairi.” Riku greeted.
“Oh, Riku, since I can see you and the love of my life are now on speaking terms, I’d like to redeem a favor that you owe me.” said Kairi. Riku furrowed his brows.
“Oh really?” Riku asked slowly.
“Yes. And I want a kiss from Sora.” said Kairi and she tapped Sora on the nose. Riku grit his teeth. Now was not the time to put Kairi in her place by telling Sora that Kairi really did stalk him. He looked at Sora and saw he was grinning.
“Sora?” asked Riku.
“Okay, I’ll do it.” said Sora. Kairi beamed and pushed Riku out of the way, puckered up and leaned in towards Sora. Sora grabbed her shoulders and leaned towards her but neatly avoided her lips and planted a kiss on her cheek. He pulled away, released her and patted her on the head.
“See you around Kairi.” said Sora and he walked away, grabbing Riku’s shirt sleeve and tugging him after him.
About a block later, Riku burst out laughing.
“Oh, my God, dude! She is SO going to kill you!”
Sora grinned and shrugged.
“It got rid of her, for now.” said Sora. Riku nodded and smiled.
“So... What kind of favor did you need from Kairi?” asked Sora as they continued walking.
“Well, she doesn’t ‘practically’ stalk you, she does stalk you. So I had to get her to tell me where you were this morning. Though... it wasn’t much of a favor since I blackmailed it out of her.” said Riku. Sora laughed.
“Don’t tell her I’m moving next week." Sora chuckled. "How did you blackmail her?"
“Well, remember when you were all after Namine?” Riku asked. Sora nodded, “Then seeing as how you’re the ‘love of her life’ she got jealous and dyed all Namine’s white dresses pink and stole all her drawings of you.” said Riku. Sora laughed harder.
“Oh wow. I remember when Namine freaked about that. Wow, now I kinda feel bad but...it’s still funny.” giggled Sora. Riku draped an arm over Sora’s shoulders while they laughed and walked.
They soon arrived back at Sora’s apartment. Sora unlocked the door and headed in but Riku waited outside the door.
“Whatcha doin’ Riku? Come in!” yelled Sora from the kitchen.
“Sora...” Riku hesitated. Sora came back to the door.
“What?” asked Sora.
“You’re my boyfriend, right?” asked Riku bluntly. Sora blushed then ruffled his spikes.
“Yea! Duh! Now get your scrawny ass in here!” Sora said then walked back into the living room.
“We need to beat that one boss in that one game!” said Sora with a wave over his shoulder as he crouched next to the TV and turned on the Playstation 2. Riku grinned and entered the apartment, closing the door behind him and taking off his shoes.
“The virus in Dot Hack?” asked Riku.
“Yeah! That one!” agreed Sora as they both sat down on the couch and pulled the Playstation 2 controllers to them.
“I bet you die and I have to revive you before I even take a hit.” grinned Riku. Sora glared.
“No, I bet you die first!” Sora retaliated lamely. Riku laughed and pushed start.
“Let the boss battle begin.” said Riku.
Ten minutes later Sora was dead, again, Riku hadn’t been hit yet and he was running out of stuff to revive Sora’s character.
“Sora! My god! Stop dying!” exclaimed Riku and he revived Sora who then ran right at the boss again, and got the shit beat out of him... again. Riku hit pause before Sora’s character hit the ground.
“What part of tactics and teamwork don’t you understand?” demanded Riku as he turned to Sora.
“Hey! Hey! Unpause it and revive me!! I was soo close that time!” yelled Sora as he gripped the controller. Riku tugged the controller neatly out of Sora’s hands.
“No, not until you promise to listen to me.” said Riku.
“I’ll listen! I’ll listen! Give it back!!” said Sora as he tried to recapture the controller that Riku held out of his reach.
“Sora! You don’t stay alive for more than 30 seconds and I’m running out of potions. Think about what you’re doing for a minute!” exclaimed Riku.
Sora stopped reaching for the controller and stared at Riku.
“What? Did something I said finally break through?” asked Riku as he rolled his eyes.
“Yea... something...” said Sora and then he leaned forward and captured Riku’s lips in his own. Riku blinked a couple times then closed his eyes and dropped the controller, instead reaching around to run his hands against Sora’s back. Sora pushed harder against Riku’s lips and Riku fell back onto the couch. Their lips parted and Riku opened his eyes to see Sora blushing a deep red and refusing to meet Riku’s eyes. Riku ran the back of his hand against Sora’s cheek and caressed his shoulder with his other hand.
“Sora?” asked Riku softly. Sora glanced briefly at Riku then away again. Riku grinned and pulled Sora down onto him and kissed him, running his hands along Sora’s back once again, this time lightly massaging. Riku opened his eyes slightly when he felt Sora’s hand on his shoulder, fisting in his shirt. Riku released Sora’s lips and kissed his chin then leaned forward to lay kisses along Sora’s jaw line, breathing softly in Sora’s ear.
“Ri... ku...” Sora sighed. Riku grinned and purred softly into Sora’s ear. Sora laughed breathily. Riku pulled himself out from under Sora and sat up, stretching his legs out on the couch around Sora who he then pulled into his lap with Sora’s back against his chest.
“R-Riku?” asked Sora softly.
“Shhh, it’s okay.” said Riku and he began to plant kisses at the base of Sora’s neck, his hands now roving Sora’s chest, pressing lightly here and there until Sora seemed to relax completely into his arms, leaning seemingly limply against Riku’s chest.
Riku grinned and continued to kiss Sora as he directed his hands to brush lightly over Sora’s nipples. Sora jumped slightly but Riku held him in place gently as he brushed the tips of his fingers ever so softly against Sora’s hardening nipples and even tweaking them occasionally and receiving little gasps from Sora.
Riku left one hand at Sora’s chest and strayed the other down to the hem of Sora’s shirt and slid his hand under it. He heard Sora’s slightly louder gasp as Riku had his other hand join the first and start to push the shirt up. Sora grabbed his shirt and tugged it off, turning to Riku with a glazed look as he leaned in and kissed Riku forcefully until Riku gently pushed him away and began to run his hands against Sora’s now bare chest.
Sora settled back against Riku, resting his head against Riku’s shoulder and sighing. Riku smiled and let his hands stray lower. He noticed Sora’s blush return in full force and he tried to turn and hide his face against Riku’s neck. Riku kissed Sora’s forehead softly and noticed Sora had his hands in a death grip on the couch.
“Are you Ok?” asked Riku softly. Sora squeezed his yes tighter shut and nodded against Riku’s neck. Riku let his hands move to the button and zipper on Sora’s shorts.
“How about now?” Riku asked as he began to undo the fastenings. Sora nodded again and Riku slid his hands into Sora’s shorts, brushing against the bulge in Sora’s boxers. Sora’s breathing became erratic.
“And now?” asked Riku as he slid a hand inside Sora’s boxers and stroked Sora softly. Sora whimpered and fisted a hand into Riku’s shirt.
“Y-Yes.” breathed Sora. Riku leaned his head against Sora’s and began to lightly flutter his fingers against Sora who started to squirm and tried to thrust his hips at Riku’s hand.
“R-Riku.” Sora whispered and he left his mouth hanging open as he gasped greedily for air. Riku smiled and kissed Sora on the forehead then wrapped his hand around Sora and slid it slowly up and down. Sora whimpered loudly and tugged on Riku’s shirt.
“Please.” Sora said softly. Riku felt himself blush crimson and began to stroke Sora faster.
Sora’s breathing became very erratic, stopping completely at times and then gasping madly as he moaned softly into Riku’s neck. Riku picked up speed and Sora moaned louder.
“Riku!” Sora exclaimed suddenly as he began to thrust hard into Riku’s hand and then there was a huge intake of breath as Sora’s whole body arched into the air and Sora moaned loudly.
“Ahhhh!! Riku!!” he exclaimed and then collapsed against Riku and breathed heavily.
Riku slid his hand out of Sora’s pants and reached for the laundry that Sora never put away but always left in piles next to the couch. Riku wrapped his hand around the first thing he felt and pulled it around. Conveniently it was a towel and Riku wiped his hand off on the towel then discarded it on the floor.
Sora snuggled against Riku’s chest and sighed. Riku grinned and fastened Sora’s pants then gasped when he felt Sora’s hand cup him. Riku grabbed his hand and brought it to his lips and kissed the back of his hand.
“But--?” asked Sora, searching Riku’s face tiredly. Riku shook his head.
“Don’t worry, I’m fine.” Riku smiled and wrapped his arms around Sora and hugged him tightly.
“I’ll redeem that later though.” Riku said softly into Sora’s ear. Sora blushed then covered his face and sighed as he relaxed against Riku.
“You’re a fucking perv, you know that?” asked Sora sarcastically. Riku laughed.
“I didn’t hear you complaining.” grinned Riku. Sora punched Riku lightly in the gut causing Riku to briefly gasp for air.
“Don’t go all kinky on me retard, you still need to revive me.” said Sora as he fished around on the floor for the controller and snagging it by its cord. Riku threw his head back and laughed.
“I can kill that thing in the time it takes it to kill you again.” said Riku with a grin as he and Sora sat up and pulled the controllers into their hands.
“Is that a bet, fag?” asked Sora and his finger hovered over the start button.
“You bet it is, whore!” exclaimed Riku and he unpaused the game, revived Sora and ran at the monster.
